Mobile Testing Challenges

  • Device Fragmentation: Multiple screen sizes and OS versions
  • Network Variability: Different network conditions and speeds
  • Battery Life: Impact on app performance and user experience
  • Memory Constraints: Limited RAM and storage space
  • Touch Interface: Gesture-based interactions
  • Platform Differences: iOS vs Android behavior
